Subject: RE: BS: Clerical child abuse Part 94....
As I pointed out, the CofE also has a very large proportion of homosexual priests. But it doesn't seem to have a significant child abuse problem (either of the sexual kind or just plain bullying and violence).

The difference is that the CofE doesn't have locally hegemonic power anywhere these days. An abuser priest in the CofE (of whatever sexual orientation) has no effective protection from secular law enforcement.
